Jessica Green recently won the New Zealand Women’s Amateur Championship, her maiden national title.

She did it in style, holing her third on the 34th from 30 metres right of the 16th for birdie to seal the deal against New Zealand representative Vivian Lu.

Green played some unbelievable golf prior to that and was never down in her match.

She birdied the first to go 1up immediately and would never look back. Every time Lu struck, Green would answer. After making the turn 1up, they went blow for blow on the back nine until they stood on the 16th, where Green holed her second to make the difference two. The Bay of Plenty golfer backed it up with a birdie at 17 to make the margin three holes, and after a half at 18, Green held a 3up lead with 18-holes to play.

She got the speed wobbles in her opening nine of the afternoon and Lu reduced the deficit to one with nine to play.

However, she kept her composure, winning the 28th and 29th to get to 3up once again. After losing the 32nd with a double, lightening struck twice on the 16th where she holed her third after finding trouble off the tee for birdie to close out the match.
